This transfer book includes some pages from the triglot transfer book by:
Audrey Payne, Albert Kirimpa,
Serave Tine'me and others
First Edition 1979, Second Edition 1986, Third Edition 1988
Fourth Edition (with spelling revision) 2004 of 2,000 copies by Nelson Banala and
Rich and Joyce Mattocks
This 2008 Fifth Edition (with more spelling revisions) includes about half the pages
from these previous editions which have been completely revised by the Kamano-Kafe
Translation Team assisted by Rich and Joyce Mattocks. Andrew Patave also
contributed new stories
2008 4,100 copies
Illustrations used by permission of SIL, Global Recordings Network, and the

The purpose of this book is to help Kamano-Kafe people to learn to read in Kamano-Kafe
Primer in Triglot: Kamano-Kafe, Tok Pisin, English
Published by the Kamano-Kafe Translation Committee
Ukarumpa, Papua New Guinea
Printed by the SIL Print Shop
Ukarumpa, Papua New Guinea
ISBN 9980-0-3395-9
The Kamano-Kafe' people number about 83,600, and live in the Kainantu and
Henganofi sub-districts of the Eastern Highlands of Papua New Guinea.
***Do you want to learn to speak and write English very well? If you try to move
from Tok Pisin to English you will fail and you will not get the best marks in school.
Tok Pisin does not have enough words to make your brain (tingting) strong. Learning
another big Tok Ples like Kamano-Kafe before learning English is the best way to
learn English. The people in Kamano-Kafe who speak the best English also speak the
best Kamano-Kafe. The young people who are speaking Tok Pisin and who do not
speak good Kamano-Kafe are not learning to speak English well.***
